Definitions
- the present invention relates to a seal for an electrical connection of the type comprising a base housing and a plug housing, and to such a connection provided with such a seal.
- an object of the present invention is to provide a seal for an electrical connection of the kind comprising a base housing and a plug housing, which overcomes the above disadvantages while not detracting from the quality of the sealing and even improving it.
- Another object of the invention is to provide such a seal which improves the cutoff speed of the electric arc when uncoupling the plug housing of the base case.
- a further object of the invention is to provide an electrical connection of the kind comprising a base housing and a plug housing provided with such a seal.
- annular seal for an electrical connection of the kind comprising a base case and a plug case, said seal extending in an axial direction and comprising a cylindrical base surmounted a skirt extending axially from the base, the skirt having an inner wall, an outer wall and a rounded free edge, the inner wall and the outer wall each having, in radial section, a continuous curved shape, the thickness of the skirt decreasing by nonlinear and continuous way from the base to the free edge, the skirt having a concavity turned towards the inside of the seal whereby the skirt folds on itself when an axial stress is exerted on the free edge.
- the axial and radial directions respectively correspond to the directions defined by the coast and the radius in a cylindrical coordinate system.
- the axial direction is indicated by the axis of revolution of the joint.
- the adjectives "inside” and “outside” are used with reference to the radial direction so that an inner portion (ie radially inner) is closer to the axis of the joint than an outer portion (ie radially exterior).
- the configuration of curved walls and the orientation of the concavity of the skirt allows the seal to be particularly effective vis-à-vis the prevention of the risk of deformation and yawning of the free edge.
- This configuration also makes it easy to compensate for possible surface defects in the base and plug housings, for example burrs.
- the skirt is formed by folding on itself a compression spring which generates an axial thrust when the disconnection of the casings, this thrust to reduce the time of cutting the electric arc between the electrical contacts of the casings.
- the outer wall of the skirt has a curvature such that it protrudes from the base and that the free edge is located inside the seal relative to the base.
- Such a curvature improves the prevention of the risks of deformation and yawning of the free edge, the compensation of any surface defects of the base and plug casings, as well as the spring effect of the skirt.
- the outer wall is radially protruding outwardly of the seal, beyond the base.
- the outer wall has a maximum radius greater than the maximum outer radius of the base.
- the free edge has a radius smaller than the minimum inner radius of the base.
- the skirt has at least one rib disposed in the vicinity of the free edge.
- the rib extends for example over the entire azimuthal length of the free edge.
- the azimuthal direction corresponds to the direction describing a ring around the axial direction.
- the azimuthal direction corresponds to the direction defined by the angle in a cylindrical coordinate system.
- neighborehood is meant the end portion of the skirt extending about 20% of the axial length of the skirt from the free edge.
- Such a rib stiffens the free edge, whereby it improves its mechanical strength over time, which improves the seal of the seal.
- This rib allows in particular to improve the prevention of the risk of deformation and yawning of the free edge.
- the rib also makes it possible to improve the compensation of possible surface defects of the base and plug housings, for example burrs.
- the rib also improves the spring effect of the seal when connecting the base and plug casings, which increases the thrust exerted by the seal during the disconnection of the casings, and thus the cutting of the electric arc between the electrical contacts of the housings.
- said at least one rib is disposed outside the skirt.
- Such a rib also improves the sealing of the seal by forming a lip configured to cooperate with the element cooperating with the free edge and folding the skirt on itself. The joint surface is thus enlarged, which improves the sealing of the seal.
- said at least one rib is disposed within the skirt.
- Such a rib is particularly effective for stiffening the free edge.
- the seal may have a single or several ribs arranged outside the skirt, or a single or several ribs disposed inside the skirt, or one or more ribs arranged inside. the skirt and one or more ribs disposed outside the skirt.
- the base has an axial shoulder disposed within the joint.
- the shoulder extends radially and has a radial bearing surface perpendicular to the axial direction.
- This axial shoulder is thus configured to cooperate axially with a complementary element.
- a shoulder can facilitate a interlocking installation within a plug housing or base housing, providing a support zone.
- the present invention also relates to an electrical connection of the type comprising a base housing and a plug housing provided with such a seal.
- the base cooperates with the base housing and the rounded edge of the skirt with a cylindro-conical wall of the plug housing, so that the skirt folds on itself.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a first embodiment of a seal for an electrical connection of the type comprising a base casing and a plug casing,
- FIG. 2 is a radial half-section view of the seal according to FIG. 1, in dashed line showing the seal when in contact with a plug housing,
- FIG. 3 is a partial axial section of an electrical connection provided with a seal according to the first embodiment
- FIG. 4 is an axial half-sectional view of a second embodiment of the seal, in dashed line showing the seal when in contact with a plug cover, and
- FIGS. 5A and 5B are axial half-sectional views of a third embodiment of the seal, dashed being shown the seal when in contact with a plug housing.
- annular seal for an electrical connection of the kind comprising a base housing and a plug housing is shown.
- the seal 1 extends in an axial direction X and in this example is constituted by a cylindrical base 2 surmounted by a skirt 3 extending axially from the base 2, the free edge 4 is rounded.
- the thickness of this skirt 3 decreases, non-linearly and continuously, from the base 2 to this rounded free edge 4.
- the skirt 4 has an outer wall 3a and an inner wall 3b having, in section along the radial direction Y, a continuous curved shape.
- the skirt 3 has a concavity turned inwards.
- the concavity of the skirt 3 is oriented towards the X axis of the joint 1.
- the outer wall 3a of the skirt 3 has a curvature such that it protrudes from the base 2 and the rounded edge 4 is located inside the seal 1 relative to the base 2.
- the thickness of the skirt 3 is less than that of the base 2 in the vicinity of the latter, so that there is an internal shoulder 5.
- Such a seal is made of a material of more or less low hardness (40 shores for example), good resistance to temperatures, good resistance to external aggressive elements, while allowing it to have excellent flexibility.
- FIG. 3 An electrical connection of the type comprising a base casing 6 and a plug casing 7 is shown in FIG. 3: the plug casing 7 enters the base casing 6 which is provided with a seal 1 as described previously with reference to FIGS. 2.
- the plug casing 7 is held in position in the base casing 6 by a hook 9 as is known.
- the plug housing 7 has a cylindro-conical wall 8 narrowing towards its free edge or base of the cone 8a.
- This cylindro-conical wall may be cylindrical or conical with a more or less acute apex angle. In the present embodiment, this cylindrical conical wall is conical or conical 8.
- the rounded free edge 4 of the skirt 3 is positioned at the base of the cone 8a which then exerts an axial stress on the edge 4.
- the axial length or height of the skirt 3 is such that it comes very early in contact with the case 7 plug.
- the skilled person will understand that such a seal 1 in cooperation with the cylindro-conical wall 8 can absorb d possible defects such as yawn in the zone opposite to that of the hook 9.
- the skirt 3 by its rounded free edge 4 folds on itself, the folded portion remaining in permanent contact with the conical wall 8: this winding begins opposite the hook 9 and spread to him.
- the contact surface skirt 3 - conical wall 8 is optimal and increases as a function of the state of advancement of the plug casing 7 in the base casing 6.
- the seal 1 folds on itself, the volume of folded material increases, thereby causing an increase in engagement forces within the limit of a manual engagement effort without use of additional means (lever, etc.), and, consequently, an increase in the pressure exerted by the skirt 3 of the seal 1 on the conical wall 8 of the plug casing 7.
- the skirt 3 by its remarkable shape makes it works mainly in bending; the reaction exerted by the skirt 3 of the gasket 1 on the conical wall 8 of the plug casing 7 makes it possible to ensure the necessary sealing in the zone of interference between these 2 elements.
- the skirt 3 by its remarkable shape hardly works in compression. Indeed, the rounded edge 4 of the skirt 3 folded never comes into interference with the rest of the seal 1, in particular with the inner wall 3b.
- the skirt 3 by its remarkable shape makes it possible to absorb the deformations related to the work over time of the different materials while remaining in contact with the conical wall 8 of the plug casing 7 even in case of significant distance from the base casing 6 (yawning) .
- the seal 1 has a tendency to inflate thus creating a barrier between the base casing 6 and the casing plug 7.
- This barrier is a real breakwater that ensures a watertight seal under pressure.
- FIG. 4 shows a seal 100 according to a second embodiment.
- This seal 100 is similar to the seal 1 of the first embodiment with the exception of the annular rib 112 disposed in the vicinity of the free edge 104, and the curvature of the inner walls 103b and outer 103a of the skirt 103.
- This rib 112 is an internal rib, it is disposed inside the skirt 103.
- FIG. 5A shows a seal 200 according to a third embodiment.
- This seal 200 is similar to the seal 1 of the first embodiment with the exception of the annular rib 222 disposed in the vicinity of the free edge 204, and the curvature of the inner walls 203b and outer 203a of the skirt 203.
- the other common elements between the first embodiment and the third embodiment are not described again and retain the same reference sign incremented by 200.
- This rib 222 is an external rib, it is disposed outside the skirt 203.
- the FIG. 5A shows the seal 200 in cooperation with the conical wall 8 of the plug housing 7.
- this seal 200 is particularly well adapted to cooperate with a wall 80 substantially parallel to the axial direction X.
- the seal made by the seal is in this case particularly effective, the rib 222 forming a sealing lip complementary.
- the axial stress exerted by said wall 80 on the free edge 204 causes the skirt to fold on itself by winding, as described above.
- an outer rib makes the joint even more versatile, the latter being used with a greater variety of crank free edge.
